Islamic Daily Reminder

SECOND REMINDER. Thursday. Let's continue on our topic today on disasters been part of Allah's Mercy. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. The scientists say that there are so many real and imminent threats to life on earth, in the midst of so many risks, that, statistically speaking, on the basis of mathematical probabilities, we shouldn’t actually be here at all! These are scientists and mathematicians, many of them are atheists. They say that life is possible only on the very narrowest of margins. Considering the awesome dangers all around us, it’s a miracle that life exists at all. Of course, as believing servants of Allah, we say that none of this happens by chance. None of this can be explained away by coincidence. Everything exists by HIS Mercy, by HIS Will, by His Decree, By HIS POWER. Allah reminds us in His Holy Book: "......The sky and the earth is open to them, and how much is hidden? If Allah wished He could cause the earth to swallow them up or ca...

FIRST REMINDER. Al-Khamis (Thursday). 24th day of Rabeeu At-thani (11th day of January). SO CALLED NATURAL DISASTERS SUCH AS CYCLONES, HERICANES, EARTHQUAKES IN RELATION TO ALLAH'S MERCY. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. The Arabic word for mankind is Insaan. One of the meanings of Insaan is forgetfulness. Human beings are forgetful, and we need constant reminders as to who we are, why we are here on earth, and to whom we owe a debt of gratitude. All our acts of worship, our Salaah, Zakaat, our fasting and Hajj, are actually reminders of this unique relationship between the Creator and the created, between the Rabb and His abd, the Lord and His servant. We Muslims, if we aspire to become true believers, we have to be constantly aware of our utter reliance on ALLAH: our utter and absolute helplessness in the face of the titanic forces of nature around us. The Burma cyclone, American hericanes and the Chinese earthquakes etc are timely reminders, if we need reminding,...

THIRD REMINDER. Wednesday. Question but this time from a Muslim😱: If a girl doesn't wear hijab, does that mean she will go to hell? But what if she reads Salat, Quran regualrly, acts decently, doesn't look at boys, doesn't gossip/babckbite etc, will not wearing hijab condem her to hell despite all her good attributes? BismilLah. Let's continue from the second Reminder; A sin may appear insignificant in the eyes of a person but before Allaah it is serious, as Allaah says: “you counted it a little thing, while with Allaah it was very great” [al-Noor 24:15]. With regard to belief, if a Muslim who prays commits some sins or bad deeds, he is still a Muslim so long as he does not commit any action which would put him beyond the pale of Islam or do any of the things which nullify Islam. This sinful Muslim will be subject to the will of Allaah in the Hereafter; if He wills He will punish him, and if He wills He will forgive him. If he enters Hell in the hereafter, he will ...

SECOND REMINDER. Wednesday. Question but this time from a Muslim😱: If a girl doesn't wear hijab, does that mean she will go to hell? But what if she reads Salat, Quran regualrly, acts decently, doesn't look at boys, doesn't gossip/babckbite etc, will not wearing hijab condem her to hell despite all her good attributes? BismilLah. This response is general for all brothers and sisters. Pardon me for the length please. First of all, it is essential to know that Muslim men and women are obliged to follow the commands of Allaah and His Messenger, no matter how difficult that may be for people and without feeling shy of other people. The believer who is sincere in his/her faith is the one who is sincere in carrying out his duty towards their Lord and obeying His commands and avoiding that which He has forbidden. No believer, man or woman, has the right to hesitate or delay with regard to commands of Allaah; rather he or she should hear and obey immediately, in accordance wit...

FIRST REMINDER: Al-Arba'ā (Wednesday) 23rd day of Rabeeu At-thaani (10th day of January). TO MY DEAR SISTERS, IF YOU ARE HOPING AND PRAYING FOR GOOD HUSBAND, THEN PLEASE COVER YOURSELF WELL FOR ALLAH SAKE BECAUSE IF YOU DISPLAY YOUR BEAUTY IN PUBLIC LIKE ON FACEBOOK/ WHATSAPP etc, ONLY WRONG MEN COMES FOR YOUR BEAUTY TO MESS YOU UP. IT'S MY HUMBLE ADVICE. BISMILLAH. Our mother Aaisha (radi Allahu anha) narrated: “Asma (radi Allahu anha) came to see the Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam). She was wearing a thin dress. The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) turned away from her and said, ‘O Asma, once a woman reaches the age of puberty no part of her body should be uncovered except her face and fingers.’” [Abu Dawud]. Strive to please Allah by covering yourself and Allah will bring the right man to you even if you never leave your room. For your information, covering your entire body is not optional for sisters, it's a command from ALLAH so why ...

THIRD REMINDER. Al-thalaatha (Tuesday). 22nd day of Rabeeu At-thaani (9th day of January). A MUSLIMS WAY OF LIFE. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "The food of two persons suffices for three persons, and the food of three persons suffices for four persons.'' [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. Jabir bin `Abdullah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "The food of one person suffices for two, the food of two persons suffices for four persons, and the food of four persons suffices for eight persons.'' [Muslim]. This Hadith indicates that if a few persons share the same dinner-table, a small quantity of food will be enough for many persons. Moreover, this increases mutual love and fellow-feeling. By doing so, Allah will bless the food and the little we eat will be enough for the stomach be-iznilLah. It also applies to giving some money out of the littl...

SECOND REMINDER. Al-thalaatha (Tuesday). 22nd day of Rabeeu At-thaani (9th day of January). A MUSLIMS WAY OF LIFE. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. From the First Reminder today, we read from the Creator that We should follow His commands which include total obedience to His Messenger. His Messenger Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him and his entire righteous families and companions said "All my followers will enter paradise except those who refuse. His companions said, "O Allah's Messenger! Who will refuse? "He said" Whoever obeys me will enter paradise and whoever disobeys me is the one who refuses (to enter it). All the paths are blocked for Man except for those Muslims who follow in the footsteps of the Prophet (s.a.w). For such believers all roads to goodness are open. As was mentioned earlier the best followers of the Quran and the prophet were the companions of the Prophet (S.A.W). They are undoubtedly the best in terms of understanding the religious obl...
